Recently, the ergot sulfur produced by Shanghai Yunluo has obtained the EU COSMOS natural certification granted by ECOCERT in France.
Ergothionein (EGT) is a natural and rare chiral amino acid. In 1909, it was isolated by Charles Tanret from ergot (the sclerotia of the ergot fungus and the small headed ergot fungus), hence its name. EGT can only be obtained from food and cannot be synthesized by animal and plant organisms themselves. As a chiral amino acid that is a natural antioxidant, it has significant antioxidant and anti-aging effects. It has been recognized by GRAS in the United States and listed as a new resource food by the European Union.
Product information:
INCI: Thiol histidine trimethyl internal salt
Appearance: White crystal or powder
Odor: Odorless to mild characteristic odor
Content: ≥ 99.9%
Suggested addition amount: 0.1~3%
Product advantages:
1) Using synthetic biology technology as the main approach, supplemented by interdisciplinary research, to construct an efficient enzyme molecule expression system and improve enzyme protein expression levels;
2) Directed evolution of existing enzymes to improve their activity, stability, and selectivity, thereby achieving large-scale production;
Patent certificate:
Patent number: ZL 2024 1 1578526.8
Mechanism principle:
The main energy source of somatic cells is adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is generated through the conversion of fatty acids in the energy factory mitochondria. The generation of energy leads to the production of free radicals, and ergotamine can effectively eliminate free radicals and protect mitochondria.
